Mother Earth needs us to play our parts. Every action makes a difference, no matter how small. Just because we are only able to make a few changes, doesn’t mean we shouldn’t make them at all. It begins with us, and when our peers see us make these easy yet impactful choices, they shall soon follow in our footsteps.

REDUCE

Make every drop count 💧- while you shower, brush your teeth or do dishes - use only what you need and switch off the tap when you’re not using it!

Turn off the lights 💡- and unplug your appliances when not in use. Both mother earth and your energy bill will thank you!

Toxic and chemical products ⚠️ - from cleaning to beauty, you’d be surprised at the amount of harsh chemicals poured into everyday household items. Clean up your home for real and switch to natural solutions that both get the job done, are healthier for us, and smell better!

Walk or use public transportation 🚗 - share your rides, bike, or opt for more energy efficient vehicles.

REUSE

Carry your own cutlery 🍴- Single use plastic is far too common and far too wasteful. Get your own and feel empowered every time you refuse plastic-wear.

Get a reusable water bottle 🚫🥤- Plastic bottles are both toxic and short-lived, and don’t get us started on styrofoam(it can’t even be recycled)! Avoid consuming these products at all costs. It also saves money in the long run.

BYOB (bring your own bag) 🛍- Plastic bags are so overrated and wasteful. Set an example and show up to the shop prepared. Keeping a compact shopping bag in your car or purse is a great way to get started!

Earth day matters because our planet matters. It’s the only home we have, and the power to change the direction in which we’re headed lies within our hands. If we continue to consume, produce, and power our lives the way we are now, forests, weather systems, and our oceans will be overwhelmed and eventually collapse. Unsustainable agriculture, fisheries, infrastructure, mining and energy are leading us straight into an unprecedented loss of biodiversity, habitat degradation, pollution and climate change. The time for action is NOW. Let’s set an example for our communities and peers, because if we don’t make a positive change, then who will?
